This chapter contains the following topics:
Oracle maintains a list of acronyms and abbreviations that you can use in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications. You must refer to this list before you use an acronym or abbreviation. If a specific acronym or abbreviation is not in this list, request that your application development manager add it.
Several acronyms and abbreviations contain the ampersand (&) symbol. When you define a form control or menu that includes an acronym or abbreviation that contains the ampersand symbol, you must enter two ampersands rather than a single one. Otherwise, the runtime engine interprets the & as an underscore ( _ ).
This table is the list of acronyms and abbreviations that you can use in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications:
